Never seen 18'' on a 156 before.
Looks good but I also liked your car on the 17'' - it looked lower on those wheels

Re: 18" GT rims on a 156 (Fitted)
It was lower. I raised the ride height about 15mm after the first pic was taken. (Too low, hit the bump stops all the time, crap handling and some tyre wear issues)

When I bought your SuperSports, I thought you had got yourself some GTA 17's?  Deal fall through?

I've been waiting 6 weeks already. I think Pud may have just snapped up the other ones I was after.
Ah well. I'm occupied enough at the mo. Got the GTA headlights to fit at the weekend and then I need to install the leather interior.

Re: 18" GT rims on a 156 (Fitted)
Vary sweet  What's the ride like though? Might investigate 18's on our GT when new tyres are needed. Where did you get them from & for how much??

Yeah I did, sorry bout that..
He wanted rid of them sharpish as he had no where to keep them. £200 for a set of 17" GT Multi's must be the bargain of a century! Many Chris will sell his 17" GTA Multis soon..

Re: 18" GT rims on a 156 (Fitted)
not for 200 I won't!  I'm still debating keeping them for trackdays.
@Squadrone, the ride's erm, interesting. They've also made tramlining and torque steer worse. With a 3.2 and a quaife diff its downright scary on damp bumby roads sometimes.
